Richie Sambora playing the intros of some of his songs.

[JLmusic369]

whats th ename of the guitar at 4:57

[Guitarman092004]

What kind of guitar does he play. It's the kind I've been so looking for. Guess It's a Stratocaster with the single coils and the humbucker but I don't know which fender.....

[whatdyathink]

@Guitarman092004

It's a Fender "Ritchie Sambora" Strat. Sadly ever since Ritchies contract with fender ended they stopped making this guitar =(

[cassiabonjovi]

Richie is a GOD! u.u

[taxisteve929]

Would like to know what kind of guitar that acoustic is with the slotted headstock if anyone knows off hand.

[b737captain12]

@taxisteve929 It is a Celebrity Ovation. It is more than likely a custom.

[MissUranija]

gotta see if this cd is aviable anywhere near me... ♥ Richie, be my teacher

[drumsthewordfan]

[JoeFarmerFarndonJr]

[BonJoviGuitarFan]

Magic hands

[LTDGuitars420]

He's great but man, just cheesy, 80's style metal songs. Everybody has their own taste though.

[keithgatti]

@LTDGuitars420 that is just silly that youd say that

[leadchick]

Stranger in this town kicks ass! The answer haunts me. Great instructional video, too.

[b737captain12]

[chris83342]

[killerpfurtz]

@bjovi12

In one way all songs with powerchords are the same...You know songs like..Bad Name and on the way arround Amarican Idiot by Green Day.

[jumaral]

[mightytreasure]

--- at 1:10 listen to the cascading keyboards start at the top of the mountain and come down like a stream. Whoever wrote that part needs to get mention.

[ginjaman13]

Is it just me or can you see a face in the background?

[kiaragre]

[MrCjm21]

whats the name of the song at 1:26

[adini13]

@MrCjm21 ballad of youth

[ranger1944omaha]

I'm not for all the "Who's the best" lists, ratings, and saying one is better etc... BUT Richie Sambora is an amazing player, with great writing skills, a tone to die for and he's also very talented technically. It doesn't matter if he's in Bon Jovi. Don't like them? listen to his solo work. Plus he also designed some of the coolest guitars ever made, the fender richie sambora strat was one of the best signature models they've ever released. Affordable, but amazing. He should be more popular.

[yngwiemalmsteen8]

very good guitar player

[toxicsponge]

fuckin hell hes good

[trixy016]

The father of guitar!!!!!

[theguitarguymike]

@trixy016 no. lol thats Lester Paul

[trixy016]

@theguitarguymike Stupid comment

[theguitarguymike]

@trixy016 how is that a stupid comment? You made a stupid comment by saying he was the father of the guitar.

[trixy016]

@theguitarguymike For me,he is!!!! xDDDD Now go screw yourself!!!!

[theguitarguymike]

@trixy016 now y would i wanna do that when ur mom can do that for me!

[ludwig1300]

top 10!

[mjvg1]

I love all Richie Samboras acoustic guitars!!!

[magyarikristof]

Damn he's not in the TOP100 guitarist(rolling stone magazine):@.He's simply the best so he should be mentioned with page hendrix ,...

Bon Jovi forever

[BreakerBeat]

whats the song that plays at 1:50 to 2:05? cant heart what he is saying lol

[krzyu123]

@BreakerBeat It's Ballad Of Youth, from his first solo album, great song :)

[mcjagger666]

Does he say "A very Crue-like riff"? as in Motley?

[Travis0671]

@mcjagger666 Queen like riff dude, Queen...

[fuckyeahbonjovi]

richie ROCKS

[jeguiore]

only richie can come up those kind of intros..

[avielknot]

his hands are beautiful.. wow look at those fingers..

[REALCougarsRmales]

He defines the phrase "playing for the song". 

[framptone25]

He'll yeah!!

[elisesambora]

@crss45yy Ballad of youth off of his 1991 solo album stranger in this town

[ferbedana]

@crss45yy Ballad of Youth, from Stranger In This Town album

[kaleluk31]

if there was a group of guitar gods, Richie Sambora would be one of them and Brian may would be another

[kxg]

wow richie sambora the guitar god

[CletusColtrane]

You guys have got to be kidding me........Sambora is the best of all time, hey it's ok to like someone, but that's the dumbest comment I've ever heard.....Richie would even say that........

Don't do drugs kids, makes you dumb

[MARIOFREAK821]

I. Want. To be him.

[RichieSamboraFanat]

Only Richie ) \m/

[TheSlowredchemical]

is he singing in living in a prayer? its wierd what he does

[MrSamborasSon]

@TheSlowredchemical Kind of yes. he gives the sound of the guitar a special tone with this tube in his mouth and moves his mouth like he is singing there. This thing is called a "Talk Box" !

[TheSlowredchemical]

@MrSamborasSon thanks you have answered an old question i had

[MrSamborasSon]

@TheSlowredchemical your welcome ! Well 5 days is not that much old, anyway I always try to reply on comments about Richie.

[ivaNfender]

How could i get his tone in guitar rig 3?

[GibsonLespaul928]

my favorite guitar player just saw him amazing

[esp0318]

thank you very much for your updated.richie is really an excellent guitarist.

[truckersaurus]

Richie, Eddie, Randy, and Brian May.

The reasons why I starting playing geetar in the 80's.

Which is nice.

[gustavekiller]

best guitarist that ever walked the earth and he will always be the best!

[camaro101]

second lick sounds like dokken............

[torrity]

Does Richie use an octave pedal on "living on a prayer"?

[jordonmolaison]

@torrity No its a talk box

[torrity]

@jordonmolaison Yea Sorry! I meant You give love a bad name. On the opening solo.

[jordonmolaison]

@torrity no, he didnt. you probably could do it with one, but i just play it without the octave and it sounds normal.

[MojeImeNijeBitno]

what kind of distortion does he use?

[DJParkesie959II]

What harmonizer pedal does Richie actually use?

[CleverDjembe]

-his guitar is plugged in your mom's anus, which gives him fat harmonies and rich overtones.

[kuhboom22]

@CleverDjembe .. amazingly clever.. try not to post the same lame shit 50 times though.

[JessieBolt]

@CleverDjembe As opposed to your mom's anus which gave him a larger, looser bottom end with lots of flub.

[CleverDjembe]

@JessieBolt

HAHAHA, good one there, Jessie :D

[Bundloc]

@CleverDjembe

is it true?

well ..never considered that effect

every day we got a lesson..

hehe

[ericmelvin10]

he uses an octave above and an octave below for "bad name"

[DistortedV12]

richie sambora is so down to earth.

[GregHM81]

I have a Fender Richie Sambora Mexican Strat, it has a killer sound!

Richie rocks!!!

[thespoogemonster]

Saw them live for the 12th time manchester 08 never fail to amaze me! Richie is a god!

[GazMaddogJones]

You prolly wont see 'em in manchester again they only playing the O2 this time around.

Playing to the upper classes me thinks, judging by the ticket prices.

[snatchet]

theyre coming round again in 2011 aparently

[GUTTERFRIEND]

these days is the best jovi album by far

[GoodGuitarSolos]

@GUTTERFRIEND After Keep the Faith, yes.

[sharingan56789]

I´m from sweden

[sharingan56789]

where i come from we don´t have guitar center

[sharingan56789]

where can you buy a talkbox ??

[fenderman1212]

i bought mine at guitar center

[MeanStreet1981]

Where are you from?

[duncers79]

BUT YOU ARE LIKE HIM!!!!!!!!!!

[kochiyose12]

Richie is the best guitarist of all time!!!!!

[justinhagerty22]

@kochiyose12 abssssssssss yessssss i dnt noe why hes not ranked number 1

[daredevilciete]

[hygburt]

Richie Sambora is the best guitarist ever.

[REAPER3295]

And a musican also actually.

[Nevigo]

@hygburt

Sure..

[sirenavaradahds]

Ooohh He's a Master!!

[benno369]

I want that strat!!!!!!!

[fafaffu2]

the greatest guitarist in the most beautiful band

[soson2242]

i agree

[Jasmindaaar]

does he say john walsh at like 3 mins 5?

[poppahaze]

joe walsh, guitarist for the eagles.

[nicholascounter]

He said JOE Walsh, man, from the Eagles. Type "Rocky Mountain Way" if you don't know his stuff.

[PrsFenderJackson1980]

Not a big fan of Jovi, but I did want to hear a PAF Pro in a strat. Any other Dimarzio pickups that would work?

[JDAISBACK]

Madonna and Spears are nothing like Bon Jovi. And Richie's so well admired, Clapton has played on his record, and he's even been on stage with B.B King. On top of that, he was a personal friend of Les Paul, whom every fucking modern guitarist has to thank for inventing the solid body guitar.

[nicholascounter]

You just don't know what you're saying.

[beefcake0354]

all demos are slower than they used to be on the albums?

or it's just me? ...

[iamajibber]

i think they might have slowed them down some for the instructional vid

[CruznVette]

Thx for postin the vid..was awesum
